Product Details

We imagined the ideal dishwasher...and the concept of the DishDrawer was born. Years of research and refinement have created an appliance that offers a compelling blend of form and function. Each drawer is independently operated, allowing you to wash small loads as economically as large ones. DishDrawer lets you match the wash programme to the contents, so dishes are better cared for.

Independent drawers 2

With two independently operated drawers, the double DishDrawer delivers two dishwashers in one. Put delicate crystal in one drawer, and heavily soiled pots in the other, then simply choose the wash programme for each drawer.

Independent wash programmes for separation of wash loads

DishDrawer is two totally separate, independently operated wash units, the DishDrawer delivers two dishwashers in one. DishDrawer allows you to mix delicate crystal and heavily soiled baking dishes all at the same time, washing the delicate glassware and crockery in one wash unit on the delicate cycle, with pots and pans in the other wash unit on a heavy duty cycle. Because DishDrawer lets you match the wash programme to the type of load, there is no compromise. Dishes are better cared for.

Choice of wash programmes 9

Needless to say there is more this wash than merely swishing some water about. A choice of nine wash programmes, including an eco option for each cycle to minimise water and energy usage.

Economical eco option

Flow through detergent dispenser

The detergent dispenser pumps water through the detergent to dissolve it thoroughly before it enters the DishDrawer. Diluting detergent and filtering it through gradually ensures a superior hygenic wash without detergent burn on dishes.

This is our second set of F&P dishdrawers. While they aren't perfect - no big trays or platters - they are pretty darn good.Keys to success - Don't overload or block the spraying pattern. If you have big things blocking the side racks, they aren't going to get rinsed properly.ALWAYS use powdered detergent. Clean your filter plate periodically.Don't slam the drawers - the drawer closed sensors can be damaged by rough handling.

I like the new easier to read controls. The side racks are now adjustable, which makes it loading even easier. Whisper-quiet - I have to listen to see if it's on.

The new silverware caddy design has less cubbies, which creates more 'nesting' issues, but it's still nice to be able to just pick it up by the handle to unload it.

For a busy family, doing frequent, smaller loads using the energy-saving settings works perfectly for us.

We generally wash a full load a day. I found this difficult to load - it was like a jenga puzzle. The only water spray is from the bottom of the drawer, so if something doesn't face directly down, it doesn't get clean, and thinking about how to angle everything just the right way (let alone getting any help in the kitchen) was making my brain hurt. Didn't dry very well either. Great idea with the two drawers, looks great, but I was disappointed. Our excellent appliance company is letting us make an exchange. Thanks!!!
